Just one pea can kill

[artsyverve]

hey everyone
i have understood finally that following diet restriction strictly is highly beneficial for crohns. just one pea in the bowl gave me terrible flares.

get a good diet and follow it dont try anything other than what suits you until you are sure it wont give you any more trouble.

No offense, but how do you know it was the pea? We have had people here who are convinced they got Crohn's from eating something, because they got sick right after. It could be just a coincidence.

because everything else eaten by me the entire day was the diet which i follow everyday without any trouble. diet matters a lot when u r living with crohns. the pea was the only extra thing eaten by me that day. and i have tried this many times eating anything which is not allowed..and comes the flare!

seriously i don't care if you don't wish to believe. i have tried it a couple of times with different types of food products be it a single pea or a dozen. so if don't wish to believe then please stop with the diplomatic talk by saying "no offence". thank you. take care

I hope that you feel better artsyvere, I'm in remission and still find things that get to me on random days.

I would suggest, to be sure it was the pea that upset you. In a few weeks (or even months) when your symptoms are at bay. Have a some peas on an empty stomach and wait it out. I know it sounds like a death wish, but then you can know for sure.
